Procedure

Another aliquot of the arabinose solution obtained from Example 2 above is subjected to hydrogenation, in that hydrogen is passed into the solution after adding 10% palladium on charcoal thereto as a catalyst. After about 25 minutes the reaction is completed, and arabinitol is obtained by evaporation in vacuo in the form of white crystals.
